    I hardly have an accent when I speak German (though you can probably tell im from Southern Germany, but not that I'm Bavarian), and I suppose I have a slight accent when I speak English but most people have had trouble pinpointing me and I've had English people mistake me for American. Americans can usually tell I'm not American but not where I'm from.

    About as boring as watching paint dry.

    I'm from Ireland so it's a mix of Dublin blended with a bit of Kildare and Meath.

    That kind of accent will never be boring.

    Little southun, little northern - changes with who I'm around ;-)

    People usually tell me, "you're from Jersey? but where's your accent?" So, that.

    Online, I think I sound like a foreigner who has trouble with the language due to the number of typos I make.

    I don't have an accent. They way I speak is the yardstick by which all accents are measured.

    Soft Irish brogue (but not in a Darby O'Gill way). Top o' the morning to ye all, now where's me pot o' gold.

    shucks, Sean Connery in Darby O'Gill = my favorite accent ever!

    Me: I speak German with a slight American/slight NRW accent (since I lived there as a teen). I speak English with a limited accent when teaching, but fall back into a full northern Cali accent after prolonged periods.
